Chapter 552

"Our movie's this good, and they don't even throw in some hardship pay—only know how to ride the hype."

Hearing this, Zhou Zhou Pangzi and the publicity director also laughed.

They're no fools either—of course they've got to ride this wave.

But they did put up the money.

"No problem."

"Let's pick another five hundred viewers later—scratch that, eight hundred lucky viewers, and we'll take them all along."

"Hotel, food, and lodging all on us—treat it like a trip. Anyone who doesn't want to go can get fifty thousand back as a discount!"

Qin Yu saw fans and netizens standing firmly behind him and felt a warm glow inside.

Since that's the case, might as well give something back.

Eight hundred isn't that many—even covering everything it's only thirty or forty million at most.

Trading that for a good reputation isn't a bad deal.

But when the people present heard this, they sucked in a cold breath.

Qin Yu's gesture is no small thing—nearly a thousand people.

With that many people, the cost is at least tens of millions.

"Why don't you handle it yourself, Qin Yu? It'd boost your follower count too."

"Sure."

"……"

"What about overseas?" the publicity director Wan Hua asked from the side.

Everyone looked at Qin Yu as well.

Right.

Don't let good intentions turn into a disaster—Qin Yu's influence now is global.

Not just Chinese people—everyone worldwide feels the same way: people don't resent scarcity, they resent unfair distribution.

"．々 As for overseas, hand it over to Fox—damn it, they've made a killing, time they coughed up some blood too!"

"If they don't pay up, Zhou Pangzi, you just push the blame onto them."

Hearing this, the corner of Zhou Pangzi's mouth twitched.

The Fox people would probably cough up blood hearing this.

We're paying money so you can build goodwill—Qin Yu, you've got some nerve.

"Fine."

……

"Guo Fan."

Guo Fan looked at Qin Yu, eyes brimming with excitement.

"I'm here, Director Qin."

"Your Tang Tan 2 can start filming once the celebration banquet is over."

"No problem, Director Qin—don't worry."

He turned to look at Xu Zhen—this guy's been having a pretty good time lately.

Has the Lost in Thailand script not been squeezed out yet?

"Xu Zhen, how's your new script coming along?"

Xu Zhen was a bit embarrassed—his kidneys had been aching lately, when would he have had time to write a script?

The dividends haven't even been finished yet.

"Uh, Director Qin, I haven't started writing yet, but don't worry—I've already got the outline in my head."

"Forget it, I've drafted an outline for you too—also part of the Lost series. I'll send it to you later."

"Great!"

Xu Zhen's eyes lit up—that saved him a lot of trouble.

Qin Yu had no intention of giving Xu Zhen the full Lost in Thailand script—just an outline for him to flesh out would do.

As long as it's ready for next year's Spring Festival slot, there's no problem.

Finally (good Li's) Qin Yu turned to look at Lu Yang and asked.

"Director Lu, how's your Wu Xin Fa Shi coming along?"

"Director Qin, it'll wrap soon—at most another month."

Qin Yu nodded—that pace was on the slower side, after all, Wu Xin: The Monster Killer was a TV series.

And there were only twenty-plus episodes.

"How about this—I have a movie idea recently. If your Wu Xin Fa Shi turns out well, you can come find me."

At this, the looks everyone gave Lu Yang changed.

Damn—he's planning to focus-train this guy.

If Lu Yang makes it, he can direct movies from now on—absolutely awesome.

Lu Yang hadn't expected to be promoted to a film director this fast.

Although he used to be one too, but how to put it—those were movies so small they couldn't get any smaller.

They couldn't even count as mainstream film directors.

"Don't worry, Director Qin—I'll give it my all. I'll strive to keep up with the boss's pace."

But the moment Lu Yang finished speaking, he felt two piercing gazes.

He turned and glanced at Xu Zhen, then at Guo Fan beside him.

The smile on his face froze in an instant.

Damn!

Has my ambition been exposed too obviously, too early?

………………

PS: Third update delivered.

Begging for some votes.

Only five today, huh.

Ten votes means an extra chapter, twenty thousand words a day — that's not lazy, right?

Brothers, please support.

282 Goddess Sister acts cute, first endorsement deal comes out, netizens go crazy, don't you all fight me for this chance, get lost!

"Can't play around anymore, this little brother's about to usurp the throne, bastard."

Xu Zhen rubbed his big bald head, muttering to himself.

This guy, I can tell at one glance he's no good — just you wait.

"Bastard! If I'd known, I wouldn't have helped you — didn't expect you to be a wolf cub too, hmph!"

Guo Fan was very angry. Lu Yang had always been acting like a little brother before.

Seeing him, this old senior student was all flattery.

Now the moment he sees a chance to climb up, he gets all worked up.

His true colors have shown.

And he's even following Qin Dao's footsteps.

Where do you put the rest of us?

At the very least you should show some deference, let us vet things for you or something.

"Um, later please also ask Guo Dao and Xu Dao for their support."

The two glanced at this guy and said nothing.

Qin Yu saw this scene and smiled.

Not bad — I like directors with drive.

Lu Yang, don't be afraid. A beautiful future has to be fought for by yourself.

Now Qin Yun Culture has four directors — besides Qin Yu, there are three.

These three directors must not be all sweet and harmonious.

Competition and conflict are good things — it means the company has vitality.
